Garden Progress, Early September 2014 - Helpful Tips and Tricks from the Dow Dominion Garden

It took me longer than expected to post an update of my frugal veggie garden since my last article, but fear not! Today, I've posted a new video going over some of the routine tasks I do in the garden, as well as some other tips and tricks I've picked up along the way this season. I also do a tour around my garden (what's left of it, anyway) to show my readers what I am growing right now and what plants are still producing from the last sowing. Here's a few highlights of the video:

What material I compost

How often to turn the compost pile

How many tomato plants I expect to need to feed my family during the next growing season

Lots of mulching advice and recommendations

Fall gardening experiments

Beans, beans and more beans!

A primer on winter sowing

And more...

I hope you guys enjoy the video. Let me know if there are any specific questions you would like answered, or any particular topics you would like to have me cover. Stay tuned for further videos and articles!
